If you're taking a physical computing class this semester, or if you're planning a physical computing project for your thesis or another class, you need to sign up for TWO DAYS of shop cleanup during the semester. This means you're expected to show up half an hour before shop closing time, and see to it that the shop is clean and neat.
Anyone in the shop who's working at closing time should help, so don't do it alone. Ask your fellow classmates in the shop for assistance. If you're there at closing time, help out, even if you're not on clean-up duty that night.
If the shop is left a mess, it will be closed until it is cleaned. This is what a clean shop should look like.
Anyone using the shop for any project this semester is expected to sign up for cleanup.
